I know I posted this in this thread as well, but you probably should have done some more research before sticking on a dev tag you made up.
It would have to be [dev1038], as 1035 was for targeting, 1036 for the addition of exp/sp/loot to sidequest mobs, and 1037 for enhanced battle effects. But even then, making up your own dev tags is never a good idea.
That being said, I completely agree with everything you said! I just hope the dev team is able to find this since it uses the wrong tag, haha.
